I dont believe in diets, but Im aware that my job is incredibly sedentary.
I dont really enjoy exercise.
I enjoy team sports like football, but there are no amateur teams near me.
I can’t think of anything more boring than just running.
Still, I fell off.
I downloaded a few of the recommended games and set off with no particular goal in mind.
Im not trying to lose weight, I just want to be a bit healthier.
First, I tried FitXR.
by approaching things wrong.
Cleansheet Football had similar issues.
to the dull activities, punching, saving, and catching footballs flying at you gets old quickly.
Those three actions are exactly the same motion with slightly different trigger presses.
The other main action, throwing, barely works.
Les Mills Body Combat is like FitXR but better.
I found myself coming back to Les Mills every time I switched on my Quest for an exercise session.
Ice pack in place, I got back to testing games.
The likes of Pistol Whip and Beat Saber engaged me far more than any fitness-focused title.
With that entertainment, exercise comes naturally.
However, the ultimate fitness game on Quest had been staring me in the face this whole time.
Quell has just announced that it is shutting down the live-service elements of Shardfall.
The base game, however, will continue to work on all platforms.
The headset is clunky, awkward, and makes your head sweat profusely.
Shardfall on Quest doesnt allow for the chest tech, meaning that your jumps and ducks register less consistently.
But its still better than any other fitness game on the market.
If youre looking for VR fitness, look no further.
With no major VR reveals at State of Play, it’s tough to believe PlayStation still has faith.
